Camp Loon 2015 saw 149
Junior Canadian Rangers from 19 First Nations from across the far north in
Ontario spend eight days in July in the bush north of Geraldton. The advanced
training emphasized safety on the land and water and in personal lifestyles.
The tent camp has been held annually since 2000 and operated this year with the
assistance of 47 Canadian Rangers, who are part-time reserve soldiers, and 52
other military personnel.
